How It Started
It all started on a day when the news felt overwhelming and negative, so I decided to watch a youtube video of a woman making pie and thought, “There is still peace in the world.” It sparked in me an idea that I had held close for a long time, to start a blog. I wanted to create space on the internet that was a pause from the negativity in the news and a reminder of the little joys in life. So thanks to a woman, a youtube video, and pie…here is my blog.
This last year we bought a home that we renovated and DIY’d, we learned A LOT in the process. Through the course of starting a family and buying a home, it really has shifted our everyday life into home projects, cooking, looking for deals, etc. We have the belief that a home is much more than just a house, but a place to belong and create a culture that serves, encourages, and edifies. I thought why not document all things homemaking, renovation, and motherhood since it is something that is a part of our day to day lives anyway + something we are passionate about!
Who I Am
I got married when I was 23 to my bestie for the restie who I met at a church event. A year and a half later we got pregnant with our son, Ryder! After working in the social media and marketing field for a couple years, I decided to take a break and be a stay at home momma with our son.
What It's About
My hope is for this space to be an inspiration for those that are looking to slow down the pace of life and enjoy the small things. My desire is to share quality things but an inexpensive price tag – from home projects, decor, to renovation! Along with that, you will also find sprinkles of everything in between from motherhood, style, and personal stories intertwined with faith.
Overall, I don’t want this space to be a place for perfection but a spot to take a pause from the chaotic world and connect through the little joys! Grab a hot latte, green tea, or whatever it is you like and make yourself at home!
Thanks for stopping by:)
